Glasses/contact lenses, pacemakers, insulin pumps, cochlear implants, prosthetic limbs.

Some stuff does help us and isn't done purely for evil. It is the monkey murdering brain chips you gotta worry about. And maybe some of the listed stuff being taken over by monopolistic corporations like the glasses industry.

Do people think of cybernetics when they think of transhumanism? I can see the continuum, but I think of transhumanism as being about more fundamental changes

Mobile phones, as well. Thing is, though, I wouldn't describe a mobile phone as "the next step in evolution"—it would seem downright silly to, even.

Not until the phone is in the body.

Gentlemen, I present: the world's first transhuman!

IN the body. This is still simple gadgetry ;p

Now, bite the phone and you can play off the wording xD
